Liverpool have reached a preliminary deal to sign Hugo Ekitike from Eintracht Frankfurt, per David Ornstein. The 22-year-old striker, who scored 22 goals with 12 assists last season, is set to become Frankfurt’s most expensive sale—potentially surpassing the €95m Kolo Muani deal.
Personal terms are nearly agreed, with final talks underway. Liverpool turned to Ekitike after stalling on Alexander Isak, despite offering up to £120m.
Ekitike’s arrival could trigger exits, with Luis Diaz seeking a move amid interest from Bayern and Barcelona, while Darwin Nunez’s future remains uncertain.
